I accept that in the beginning there was merit in looking at it. It would be great if everything I said was accepted without review, scrutiny or reflection or the involvement of other opinions.
As it was 1) Labour Colleagues were set against it 2) We worked with the Tories but we were told things through the pages of Accrington Observer 3) THe main issue was costings, though Borough Unity came up as well.
In the end my view changed from a casual interest for, to a hard case against during the discussion process.
